The General Music Video Discussion Thread
rumandraisin replied to downzy's topic in GUNS N' ROSES - DISCUSSION & NEWS
I don't mind it, I think it's quite fun. However my 7 year old daughter loves it! She seems to like the song too, I keep hearing her humming it. But she thinks the video is scary, creepy and cool. So it has one fan at least. -
Axl has his own Website now

Yes, he was surprisingly open about saying to Slash "these things just aren't true" and Slash agreeing. And this was in June 2016 wasn't it? So I think based on Axls absolute honesty approach, I can see him telling it how it was in any book we possibly get.

They can be copy and pasted from Eye On You -
What I find interesting is we never realised there were two separate orchestral pieces being used as the intro from 2006 to 2011. Monsters was used in some 2010 shows, we were hearing parts of Soul Monster all that time and never knew. Although the strings out of context do sound quite similar from both songs.

Lotusflow3r was a late career masterpiece that sadly went by without much recognition. A genuinely well put together album unlike Planet Earth or 3121 which were more collections of songs. Prince spent a long time on Lotus working on the tracklist, and the mixing and mastering was spot on. Boom and Dreamer sound absolutely mental through big bassy speakers. Some of the guitar work is insane on that album. Highly recommend to anyone who hasn't listened, it's a really tight album. I think something happened behind the scenes though as after April 09 he sort of disappeared and stopped promoting it. Came back in the summer for a handful of shows then went again. Shame, with proper promotion and a big tour it could have been a really big album for him and Crimson and Clover might have done well, it had a nice (online released) video.

We don't know the vocal was done in 2010 and I highly doubt it. I'd say 2007, maybe he was still deciding how to sing it, working on different styles. The remix was made by Brain around 2010 wasn't it though. The crap about Axl being in the studio every year thing... 2008 he was AWOL, 2009 the same until the tour. 2010 they were on the road all year, 2011 at Rio doesn't Tommy say something to Axl like "dude I haven't seen you in a year". 12 they were on tour all year and band members repeatedly commented that they wanted to record. And so on. I dunno why years later there's this "Axl was in the studio every year recording vocals" myth.

Do we think Axl is even aware this exists... -
“Get ready for something F’n special.. 1.24.24”

Wasn't the "it might just appear" quote Mark, not Axl. -
Some songs started shorter however. CD had the pointless intro and the guitar intro lengthened and of course Buckets solo added. IRS had the second solo, TWAT was stretched with Buckets solo. Riad had the intro added. It's hard to guess as we've got so little to go on. Seven or Thyme might've been epics, but then might have been reworked back into 4 minute tracks. The General might have been longer at one point. Who knows.
